(WMC-TV) – A Mid-South girl who died in a disturbing case of child abuse will be remembered during a Friday morning ceremony at the Memphis Child Advocacy Center.

Andrea Ruth was only 12 years old when she died in Millington on November 24, 2012.

Prosecutors say she suffered from asthma, hypertension, and obesity, but that her family ignored her need for medical care.

She was scheduled to have both legs amputated in May 2011, but no one brought her to that appointment or any other appointment.
